Bathurst & Nina

Traffic volume8-hour count · Jun 27, 2019

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 8,522 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 595. Most cyclists arrived from the north (161 of 248). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,554 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 12% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (2,276). Trucks and buses were 8.3% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.

Peak hours: 2,276 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,554 from 4:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

2018 was the peak year (12 collisions), and 2025 closed with 10. 14% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 8 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 7% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from May 2, 2026.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. The most recent was on Jan 8, 2017. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Nina St between Wells Hill Ave and Hilton Ave (156 m away) recorded an average of 29 km/h in its 3-day count in October 2025; 85% of drivers were at or under 37 km/h. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

Our own measure, not a licensed walkability rating: every point comes from a City dataset listed under Sources, and the six parts add up to the score. How the score is built · the full ranking.

89 registered apartment buildings with 5,183 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, 13 of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 5.9× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 1383 Bathurst St (121 m, 30 units, 3 storeys, built 1918), which scored 70 out of 100 at its July 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 89 scored below 70; the average is 90, about the citywide norm.

89 registered buildings · 5,183 units · 13 social housing · tallest 30 storeys. The score is the City's RentSafeTO evaluation out of 100; buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units are registered, condominiums and houses are not. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place three thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.

Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Wychwood.
